NEW PHILADELPHIA New Philadelphia High School's Delphian Chorale will perform the national anthem Monday at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland when the Cavaliers take on the Dallas Mavericks.

The 32 members of this year's edition of the Delphian Choral perform under the direction of Kristi Prucha.

The vocalists sang for the Lake Erie Monsters last year and have performed the national anthem for the Cleveland Indians, the Cleveland Browns and the Akron Aeros.

"We have been invited back to sing for the Indians May 31," said Prucha. The Indians will play the Colorado Rockies that day.

For Monday's trip to Cleveland, the students will be accompanied by 100 family members and friends.

Each year the Delphian Chorale concludes the school year with a trip and performances. The students will travel to Toronto, Ontario, June 9-12. Two performances are scheduled while the vocalists are in Canada.

The students also will have the opportunity to experience some of the attractions while in Toronto and will attend a performance of the Broadway musical "The Lion King."

To raise money for the trip, chorale members will be delivering Singing Valentines.

Orders for the musical valentines will be taken beginning Jan. 31. To place orders, call the high school choir office at 330-364-0682 during school hours, or visit the website www.npschools.org. A link will be available on that main site once online ordering begins.
